To be fair a lot of emails aren't very strong evidence anyways. A lot of vendors still don't DKIM-sign their mail, S/MIME is basically nonexistent, so it's not too difficult to forge a letter.
- torstenvl 4y agoBeyond a reasonable doubt does not mean beyond any hypothetical, fanciful, or possible doubt. I think you'd have a hard time providing a jury with a reason to believe a particular e-mail was forged, particularly if there is other corroborating evidence. And that only applies in criminal proceedings - under a preponderance standard you'd have even more of an uphill battle.
- PenguinCoder 4y agoIt's a lot easier for a single entity (ME) rather than a Corporation to get all this set right, I suppose. My personal domain email has DKIM,SPF,DMARC, and I send all my emails S/MIME signed at the least. Where I run into issues with this is for automatic/service account emails, like for monitoring alerts and the like. Either have to save the PW with the S/MIME cert command somehow, or just not S/MIME sign at all for service accounts.
